I don't like the work but true i need the money 我不喜欢的工作，但真正的我需要钱

My life is like a joke but to me is isn't funny 我的人生就像是一个笑话，但对我来说一点都不好笑

People all around, telling me what to do 人周围的一切，告诉我该怎么做

And all I want to do is stay at home with you 所有我想要做的就是留在家里与你

   

Time after time I say to myself 一次又一次，我对自己说

Working all my life isn't good for my health 所有的工作我的生活不利于我的健康

Get old, get tired, get put on the shelf 老了，累了，被放到了货架上

I do all the work, someone else gets all the wealth 我做的所有的工作，别人得到所有的财富

Wish I was on an island in the sun 希望我在太阳上的一个小岛

Where I wouldn't have to worry how to get things done 在这里我就不必担心如何把事情做好

   

I don't like the work but true i need the money 我不喜欢的工作，但真正的我需要钱

My life is like a joke but to me is isn't funny 我的人生就像是一个笑话，但对我来说一点都不好笑

People all around, telling me what to do 人周围的一切，告诉我该怎么做

And all I want to do is stay at home with you 所有我想要做的就是留在家里与你

   

Day after day becomes more of a grind 日复一日变得更苦差的

Bills pile up, moneys harder to find 法案堆积，资金很难找到

Trying to get ahead money's harder to find 想要出人头地的钱是很难找到

If I don't give it up I'm gonna lose my mind 如果我不放弃，我会失去我的心

Wish I was on an Island in the sun 希望我在太阳上岛

Where I wouldn't have to worry how to get things done 在这里我就不必担心如何把事情做好

   

I don't like the work but true i need the money 我不喜欢的工作，但真正的我需要钱

My life is like a joke but to me is isn't funny 我的人生就像是一个笑话，但对我来说一点都不好笑

People all around, telling me what to do 人周围的一切，告诉我该怎么做

And all I want to do is stay at home with you 所有我想要做的就是留在家里与你
